Did you know much of your present
is clouded by your past?
 
Overview:  I will present a specific topic and through self-discovery questions you will ask yourself you will uncover if your wiring around this topic supports your wellness or not.
​
Many times we have these old wiring's that no longer serve us and we don't even realize they are there. In many cases they can be an underlying current that is causing havoc in our lives.

Through a meditation practice you will be given the opportunity to step into that space of having a wider perspective which is not based on your past experiences so you can begin to wire a program that serve you well.
